I purchased Acer TM4280 recovery media (a Bootable CD and 4 CDs) a couple of years ago for XP professional running on my laptop. My system has now corrupted and I now need to use them but find Disk 1 of 4 is corrupt and won't complete the installation. Acer tells me I need to purchase new disks at GBP 51. While this DVD sells for GBP 15. will this DVD fully restore my Travelmate 4250 to factory default conditions? If so why should I pay GBP 51?

Ross:
Unfortunately we can only sell our recovery discs at time of purchase with the laptop as we need this to create the disc. Acer will charge £51 as they have other means to create the disc which we cannot do.

As far as i am concerned this should be included in the price of the purchase of a Laptop, YES you can make your own Disks, but i was very disappointed when i purchased my Acer Aspire 5551 Laptop from a catalogue no mention of no windows 7 or back up Disk, or the need to order this on purchase, it SHOULD be include in the price, I am in the process of contacting acer about this, not that i will get any answers, but would ask more people to contact manufactures as this now seems to be the Trend

vicki:
Recovery discs are NOT included in the price of the laptops as this is an optional service provided by the retailer. The recovery discs can be self created as all the drivers are present on the unit. Laptops now also do NOT come with an operating system disc as this is pre installed.

Why is this only available with a purchase of a laptop ? why can we not buy this disc on it own. I have a acer aspire T671 which needs this disc but you dont sell it unless you buy a laptop ..

SteveF:
We need to take the disc off the laptop, no laptop no disc.

16/01/2009adam:
If I buy a laptop will it come with the disc?

David J:
No, you can purchase the recovery discs seperatley. Manufacturers do not supply them anymore

16/01/2009Tom:
I am about to buy 2 identical laptops (Toshiba Satellite Pro L300D-138 PSLC9E-00E003EN) at the same time. Do I have to buy 2 copies of the recovery disc too, or can I use the same one to restore both to factory settings if needed?

David J:
You could use the same disc for both laptops although I would recommend having 2 copies of the disc so you have a backup

i have a acer inspire 9300 that has been infected with a trojan causing all sorts of problems. can i purchase the recovery disc on its own to wipe clean the hardrive and restore windows vista back to its original settings

SteveF:
if we have the model in stock then yes as we need the laptop to take the disc from. If not Acer should be able to find one for you.

Just bought a ASPIRE 5920 from auction room model no. ZD1 I had not inspected properly because the underside cover is missing but other than that looks very much like new. When I switch on all that comes up on screen is it says "operating system not found" everything appears to have been wiped of. can this be got back with your revovery disc. Thankyou.

SteveF:
If we have the model in stock then yes, the disc needs to be made from the same machine. If we don't have it in stock then check with Acer, they might be able to help.

18/12/2008Kiera:
Does the disk come specific to the laptop/(brand) or can it be used on several laptops?

Matt:
The disk is custom made for which ever specific laptop you buy it with.

13/12/2008JH:
Will this work with my acer aspire 5920 and does it restore vista with all the acer default software?

SteveF:
It will work as long as we have the recovery disc for your particular model. You'll need to give us a call with the part code of the laptop and we'll check that for you.

11/12/2008TC:
I have just purchased 3 off Acer Aspire 2920 with the Acer recovery discs LX.ANKOX.193. Will any of the discs match any of the laptops or are they specific ? There seems to be no particular ID on the discs and they were bundled separately from the laptops. The laptops are identical apart from serial numbers

David J:
The recovery dvds are relevant to the model number so any disc can be used with any of the laptops you purchased

04/12/2008Pete Jackson:
i bought a acer aspire 5720-302G08Mi laptop in May 08 from yourselves, However, it has now picked up a virus or some corruption, crashes everytime a Word or Excel document tries to open, also crashes when an attachment is opened in email, it did not come with a recovery disc can i purchase the one shown on website? Or do i need a special one?

SteveF:
Please give our sales team a call to check if they can get a suitable recovery dvd out to you.

04/12/2008WillA:
Don't manufactuers supply these with the laptops anymore? Or at least give instructions on how to create one yourself?

SteveF:
Some do, some don't. Its all a bit random. We'd usually recommend buying one with the laptop just in case. It can save a lot of money and time later on.

01/12/2008Teetoz:
Hi, I'm intending to buy the Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-1EA laptop. Can I create my own recovery/restore DVD from the laptop immediately after i get it? OR do I have to purchase it with it?Also if I can create my own and failed to do so, can I purchase it from you within a week after buying the laptop?Many thanks

SteveF:
You can burn a disc yourself and as long as we have the laptop in stock, we should be able to burn one for you after the fact if needed.

01/11/2008nic123:

31/10/2008drew:
Hi, Does the Acer Aspire 2920 have a program on the laptop that will allow me to create recovery DVDs? Or do you disable the program so that you have to spend money on this DVD to have a recovery disc?Thanks

Matt:
You can create your own recovery disc instead.

My Sony Laptop VGN-CR23G/L has Some Problem ( It worked fine from past 1 year ) ....

I my self turned off the laptop yesterday night and when I turned it back on and it tried to start up and got the green Microsoft vista progress bar for a few seconds,

then a blue screen flashed up ... and the Laptop suddenly restarted.

If i try to boot into safe mode it freezes while it lists the drivers its loading.

I put in the recovery disk (Which was Given By SONY) , choose the language and click on Repair Windows. The next dialog box is called System Recovery Options.

I have selected the C drive and then click next.. After few seconds a pop up came stating system will try to restore previous settings .... on clicking RESTORE ....

I can see a window which shows amp;quot; Attempting to Fix Errors ..... and the status bar is going on and going on from past 6 hours ......

Can you tell me whether this Product will solve my above problem ??????

Easycom:
If you have already had a recovery disc from sony and it didn't work, I don't think another will help. It sounds like it needs looking at so I'd get hold of sony again.

If the recovery disc is not bought with a laptop then we'll need to know which model its for, so a call to the sales team is needed to establish this.

Why should I pay money for something that should have come with my laptop purchase?

Easycom:
Modern day laptops come with a restore partition on the hard drive which will restore the laptop to factory settings. However we offer a recovery disc service as some users prefer to have a disc. Also if we have installed any software for you this will also be mirrored on the disc.
